READY NOW
is an experimental and partly improvised physical and vocal performance
It's about media and psycopathy
IT and personal maintenance
I'll be performing this piece tomorrow night in the Festival of Uncertainty
The festival opens tonight, at 6.

A tarantula might, for all you know be dangling a few centimetres above your head at this very moment. But if you don't know it's there you won't be afraid of it will you? In your brain, it just doesn't exist.
In an ingenious experiment, Newman demonstrated that this might well be the story with psychopaths. Not just with spiders, but with other things. They don't feel distress, or notice such emotion in others, because when they focus on a task that promises immediate reward, they screen everything 'irrelevant' out. They get emotional 'tunnel vision'.
